Description

The desire of another person does not disappear randomly. It shifts, protects itself, contracts, or intensifies within the body.

We invite you to an experiential workshop where we will explore:

• how sexuality lives in the body and how attachment history and embodied relational patterns shape intimacy.
• why desire fades in long-term relationships.
• why excitement/arousal is sometimes replaced by anxiety.
• why closeness can at times be experienced in the body as vulnerability.

Throughout the day, we will examine the somatic foundations of attraction, shutdown, shame, erotic charge, and protective patterns.
We will also learn how to recognize sexual defenses, embodied boundaries, and the dynamics of intimacy in individuals and couples.

Through clinical examples and personal experience, you will gain practical tools for working safely and confidently with sexuality in a therapeutic context.

We will explore how sexual distance can be transformed into emotional presence, vitality, and embodied connection.

This workshop is designed for psychotherapists, psychologists, students, and anyone interested in a deep, sensitive, and clinically grounded approach to sexuality.

Location

Tbilisi
Tbilisi is the capital and the largest city of Georgia, lying on the banks of the Kura River with a population of around 1.2 million people. Tbilisi was founded in the fifth century AD by Vakhtang I of Iberia, and since then has served as the capital of various Georgian kingdoms and republics. Because of its location at the crossroads between Europe and Asia, and its proximity to the lucrative Silk Road, throughout history, Tbilisi has been a point of contention among various global powers. To this day, the city's location ensures its position as an important transit route for energy and trade projects. Tbilisi's history is reflected in its architecture, which is a mix of medieval, neoclassical, Beaux Arts, Art Nouveau, Stalinist, and Modern structures. Historically, Tbilisi has been home to people of multiple cultural, ethnic, and religious backgrounds, though its population is overwhelmingly Eastern Orthodox Christian.
